Our small class sizes, graded levels and competency based curriculum provide students with optimal conditions to progress in our swimming lessons.

Our class levels range from mums and bubs (level one) through to squads (level nine) and our student to instructor ratio ranges from 4 to 1 in learn to swim to 10 to 1 in squads and mums & bubs.

Private lessons are available in 30 minute or 60 minute timeslots for ten week terms. School Holiday intensives run morning and afternoons for one to two weeks of the school holidays and are the same levels and class sizes as regular Learn to Swim.

Our term based lessons run for ten weeks with the Public School terms. In week 8 of each term we evaluate each student against the documented competencies for their level. A certificate is issued identifying the competencies achieved and a brief meeting is held with each parent/guardian to discuss their child’s progress.

Week 9 is priority rebooking week for students currently enrolled. Week 10 is safety week, where the lesson focuses on water safety and emergency survival skills. At the beginning of week 10, any vacant positions for the following term are made available for new bookings.
